Love the size of these! I wanted a vintage look in turquoise and having the marcasite feature rendered a traditional design into just the vintage look I was hoping for. The marcasite has plenty of sparkle, the square cut turquoise stones are the perfect size for this design and add just the right amount of color to carry off an elegant look. The silver is beautifully crafted and substantial without being too weighty for the ear. They sit perfectly thanks to the "stud-style" post station, which also has just the right amount of marcasite sparkle. I like that the square setting and stones follow a theme of a diamond-shape in the dangle presentation. It clearly executes the overall design appearance very effectively. Great value for the paid price and I highly recommend. I purchased these to complement a diamond-shape marcasite and turquoise slide that I already have in my collection. They look terrific together and I couldn't be more pleased to find earrings that truly complement a completely separate piece of jewelry of similar design and exact element content. Beautiful!!
